178: The feeling of being a good person

Lin Yue and his group were promoting The First Emperor's decree on the mountain.

The number of people in their team kept decreasing, as many emaciated Mountain Bandits needed them to spare men to escort them down the mountain.

It seemed that about a thousand Mountain Bandits had surrendered by now.

Moreover, some Mountain Bandits, after finishing their porridge down the mountain, immediately ran back up to tell their friends about their experience and spread the word that there were limited spots, calling out to their friends to surrender, afraid they would miss out.

This most convincing propaganda cleared many obstacles for them, and more and more Mountain Bandits surrendered.

But there were still some who wanted to resist them.

"My Lord, there's a group of Mountain Bandits gathered ahead, and they don't look like they're here to surrender," Xing Daorong said.

"We'll know once we go and see," Lin Yue said with a smile.

Then, both sides looked at each other from a distance, seeing each other clearly.

Chen Wang hid in the ranks of the second Mountain Bandit coalition army, and as he looked at the mere hundred Soldiers opposite him, he couldn't help but be overjoyed!

These Qin Army Soldiers were too overconfident; did they think everyone would surrender?

His side had gathered over two thousand people; it seemed this time, they were sure to win!

"Prepare to attack!" the leading Mountain Bandit said.

At the same time, Lin Yue and his group also noticed the actions of the Mountain Bandits opposite them and began to assume a defensive posture.

"Attack!" With a command from the leading Mountain Bandit, the Mountain Bandits behind him charged forward!

But the next moment, he was tackled to the ground.

Immediately after, he felt ropes winding around his body, and then he felt a tightening sensation.

He was tightly bound!

"What are you doing!

Let me go!" the leading Mountain Bandit shouted, not even realizing what had happened before he lost the ability to resist!

And this scene wasn't just happening to him; the leaders on this side all met the same fate as him!

Including Chen Wang, who was hiding in the middle; because he was close, he was immediately restrained by his subordinate Mountain Bandits.

And the players among the Mountain Bandits were already stunned by this scene, standing still and foolishly staring at it.

Lin Yue's side was also a bit dumbfounded, not understanding what had happened.

"My Lord, could it be a trap?" Xing Daorong asked.

"Let's wait and see," Lin Yue also didn't understand what had happened.

So the Qin Army remained on alert, staring intently at the actions of the Mountain Bandits opposite them.

The Mountain Bandits opposite didn't make them wait long, because soon, some Mountain Bandits, pushing their leaders, ran to them and shouted:

"We are willing to surrender! We surrender!"

"Zhang Wuyi, how could you betray me?" Chen Wang asked in disbelief.

Zhang Wuyi had always risked his life for the Tianlong Guild, and he hadn't treated him unfairly, so why did he suddenly surrender?

"A wise man submits to circumstances. Now the general trend is clear, yet for your own selfish desires, you still go against the heavens!

We are just acting on behalf of heaven!" Zhang Wuyi said.

"That's right, we just want to live, but you insist on forcing us to die, how can we not resist!" another Mountain Bandit chimed in.

"You have food to eat every day, never suffering from cold or hunger, but we haven't eaten for two days!

We just want to live, what's wrong with that!" a Mountain Bandit spat fiercely at Chen Wang and his group.

Immediately, the Mountain Bandits seemed to find a way to vent their anger, rushing forward and spitting at them.

For a moment, sounds of "Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey" came one after another!

This explosive scene left Lin Yue's side dumbfounded.

Soon, their several leaders were as if they had just emerged from water, covered all over with saliva.

Some even had a blob of thick phlegm hanging on their faces.

When the cold wind of winter blew, it quickly froze into frost.

"Please escort them down the mountain. Once you're down, someone will arrange your food," Lin Yue said softly, feeling a bit nauseous from the sight.

At the same time, he vowed to treat his subordinates better!

But in their current state, probably not a single Soldier in the White Horse Camp would want to touch them, so they could only trouble them to escort them down the mountain.

The Mountain Bandits didn't mind; after getting permission, they quickly ran down the mountain, afraid that others would eat all the food.

Lin Yue smiled and followed them down the mountain.

As more and more Mountain Bandits returned to spread the word for them, they could completely wait down the mountain.

But on the way down, Lin Yue still switched identities and sent a message in the regional chat channel.

"Lin Yue: It's true, everyone come quickly!"

Then, the regional chat channel stirred up a thousand waves, and even players who hadn't surfaced for a long time asked questions.

Lin Yue didn't answer, only sent out a photo of the food he took down the mountain.

A bowl of white porridge and a small plate of side dishes were all there was.

But this still made many players drool!

After all, not everyone was a guild executive, and not every guild had food to eat.

With the corroboration and confirmation of some players who had already surrendered, more and more Mountain Bandits were tempted.

Lin Yue, seeing the favorable situation, withdrew, hiding his achievements and fame deeply!

It's good that these people were tempted; you know, players are the best candidates for labor!

Because the newly surrendered natives couldn't be exploited too harshly; if they were, they would die from exhaustion or illness.

But players were different; later generations had already proven that 996 was just the beginning, far from the limit!

Moreover, in the game, they also had a resurrection function; if managed well, they could be reused repeatedly.

It truly lived up to that advertising slogan: one person is stronger than six. One player could completely be worth six natives!

They could even try 007 and see what their limit was!

But these were just Lin Yue's malicious thoughts; whether others believed it or not, he always firmly believed that he was doing it for the players' good, wanting to save them.

To free players from the darkness and integrate them into the new world!

After all, as long as they worked hard for two years and toiled for two years, they could obtain Great Qin's household registration. Only with a household registration could this game truly be called a game.

Otherwise, it could only be called a 'famine simulator,' just like the current Mountain Bandits!

Lin Yue returned down the mountain, watching the continuous stream of surrendering Mountain Bandits, a smile on his face.

And the Mountain Bandits who were eating had satisfied smiles on their faces.

Some even licked the bottom of their bowls clean, still wanting more, but not daring to speak, as their current status was that of captives.

"No more than three bowls per person, don't be shy, because you will be contributing to Great Qin in the future!" Lin Yue said.

He made porridge instead of rice, not because he was reluctant to part with the rice, but because he was afraid that the Mountain Bandits, having not eaten for many days, might not be able to digest it, rather than being unwilling to feed them.

After Lin Yue finished speaking, some of the Mountain Bandits who were too shy to speak let out a sigh of relief.

"Thank you, sir!"

"Thank you, sir!"

Thanks were endless, a rising tide.

Lin Yue showed a satisfied smile.

So this is what it feels like to be appreciated.

He had already saved so many people; he truly was a good person, he was even moved by himself!
